after reading about inclusion of an OCAL package in Debian i was 
thinking about how to persuade other distros to include it.
i couldn't find many arguments for this, as i'm not sure our images have 
any practical use beside Inkscape, Scribus and Sodipodi, which are not 
in the base install of many distros.
i believe such app could increase the usefulness of our collection and 
make it more appealing for distros.
